Looking at an article in today’s NY post (http://www.nypost.com/p/news/local/manhattan/msg_roll_fans_EWEH8KplwQf6KTzw2B5Q0L) they are increasing prices by 900% for those seats near court for those in a wheelchair, from $300 to $2800. Yes, you see that number right. $2800. All because “the new floor spots for the disabled are closer to the action than the old ones” according to the spokesman. TW, stand up and tell them where they can shove it if they expect the 53%. 90% of capital region sports fans won’t notice, care, or have it matter

Sun, 18 Dec 2011 20:38:38 +0000http://blog.timesunion.com/sportsmedia/?p=8373#comment-19941Going from a 6.5% increase to a 53% increase sounds ridiculous to me. I like the MSG Networks. I even watch Fuse occasionally. But I don’t want to pay 53% more than what I am paying now for these three channels.

BTW, both the NBA and NHL contracts have all postseason games on a national TV network now, so if the Rangers, Devils, and Sabres make it to the playoffs, we will still be able to watch those games. Unless of course the NHL punishes us fans by blacking out those games.

I know they’ll settle eventually, but I think I’d like to try living without MSG for a while, assuming we pay less. There’s better NBA on the other channels.
